Career Summary

Michael earned his place on the main tour for 2008/9 by winning the 2007 World under-21 Championship in India, but it was to prove a début season to forget as he has failed to win a single match and lost his tour status as a result.

His best showing was probably his last as pushed Matthew Couch hard in his opening World Championship qualifier at the English Institute for Sport in February. Despite putting up a great fight and winning eight frames (he had won only ten all season going into this event), eventually he lost out 10-8 and his tour relegation was confirmed.

As one of snooker’s five ‘Hot Shots’ it is a shame that he could not perform better and show the form that won him his tour place in the first place. Hopefully he will be able to learn from this experience and if he can make it back onto the tour in the future, get a few wins under his belt.
